A Welcome from Valentina Peleggi, Music Director Dear friends, Welcome to the Richmond Symphony’s 202021 Season. It is such a joy to welcome you back and I am thrilled and honored to start our journey together, as your new Music Director.

I surely had imagined a quite different beginning, and I am sure you did too. But times like these make us reflect even more deeply on the role of the arts in a community. Now more than ever art has the incredible power to transform lives and to heal souls. Music is one of the greatest expressions of human values. It connects, it treasures the differences because it is based on balance and respect, it is a hymn to unity and inclusion. The Richmond Symphony has always been a light and an inspiration for its community: we are here for you, now more than ever.

Through the incredible success of the Summer Recital Series in July and August – with a sold-out live audience in the Dominion Energy Center and hundreds of new online subscribers – and the recent launch of the digital Richmond Symphony School of Music, we are looking to the future with enthusiasm while attracting widespread attention from performing arts groups across the nation and overseas.

We are excited to bring music on stage once again and have risen to the challenge of reimagining the programs to make the live experience meaningful and enjoyable while as safe as possible. Safety and artistic excellence have been our priorities. With this in mind, we wanted to be as inclusive as possible while shaping our new reality. We have expanded our offer to digital experiences, livestreamed concerts, and for the added comfort of those who prefer a shorter concert, we added Friday evening performances for Masterworks that will run less than 70 minutes, presented without intermission.

We are glad to announce that we have been able to honor our commitment with guest artists while we created programs that also respected the regulations on social distance between players. The season includes a greater number of diverse artists and composers, and marks the beginning of the Symphony’s

involvement in New Music USA’s Amplifying Voices partnership in order to increase support and promotion of composers of color and ensuring orchestra’s engagement with new repertoire, past and present.

We wanted the music to be as relevant, meaningful and inclusive as ever, so we have exciting plans for our Classics, Currents and Community programs, our Pops and LolliPops, Metro and Rush Hour. We are excited to open the 2020-21 Season with a program around American classical music with the incredibly versatile classical-jazz pianist Aaron Diehl and George Manahan on the podium, performing Gershwin, Copland, Joseph Turrin, Adolphus Hailstork and acclaimed Leonard Bernstein Award recipient Jessie Montgomery.

Our 2020-21 season is an inspired tribute to Richmond’s spirit of resilience, hope, and connection as we navigate these unprecedented times. We hope you will be surprised and delighted by the program as it unfolds.

On behalf of the Board of Directors, musicians and staff of the Richmond Symphony, thank you for being here today, and for helping us to bring great music, hope, and joy to everyone.

Let’s have a great season and I’ll see you there!

Sincerely,

Valentina Peleggi Music Director

ABOUT THE RICHMOND SYMPHONY

VISION We change lives through the power of our music.

MISSION The Richmond Symphony performs, teaches, and champions music, to inspire and unite our communities.

HISTORY

Each season RSO performs more than 200 performances and reaches 200,000 patrons through concerts, educational programs, and radio broadcasts.

Innovative and unexpected concert formats such as Rush Hour at Hardywood Park Craft Brewery and our mobile performance space, the Big Tent, help attract new and more diverse audiences.

Founded in 1957, the Richmond Symphony is dedicated to excellence in both contemporary and traditional symphonic music. Its mission is to perform, teach and champion music, to enrich and entertain communities throughout Virginia.

Through the incorporation of classical, contemporary, and popular music, the Symphony makes great music interesting and accessible to everyone. The League of American Orchestras recognized the Symphony as a leader of innovation in the orchestral field by selecting the Symphony as one of their 21 national Futures Fund orchestras and awarding the Symphony the Catalyst Grant in 2020, to help implement effective practices to enhance diversity, equity and inclusion.

The Symphony reaches 55,000 students each year through our educational programs, including our Musical Ambassadors Program and Discovery Concerts. Our Youth Orchestra Program provides the region’s premiere orchestral experience for 250 college and conservatory-bound students. In July 2020, the Symphony launched the Richmond Symphony School of Music (RSSoM), which will house all of its education programs and extend service into the digital realm.

The Symphony includes an orchestra of 70 professional musicians and an all-volunteer chorus of 150, is overseen by a 42-member Board, and has a staff of 25. Ancillary but separate organizations include the Richmond Symphony Foundation, which manages the organization’s endowment, and the volunteer Richmond Symphony League. In May 2020, RSO appointed its first woman Music Director, Valentina Peleggi.

The Symphony is acting as the Lead Partner for Menuhin Competition: Richmond 2021. Also known as “the Olympics of the Violin,” this international competition will bring 44 of the best young violinists in the world to Richmond for eleven days in May 2021 for performances, masterclasses, community engagement, and education activities.

ABOUT THE RICHMOND SYMPHONY CHORUS

Richmond Symphony Chorus

Erin R. Freeman Director of the Richmond Symphony Chorus & James Erb Choral Chair The Richmond Symphony Chorus is an award-winning, auditioned, all-volunteer ensemble of 150 members from the Richmond region. They perform regularly with the Richmond Symphony, Richmond Ballet, and in stand-alone performances around the community.

The chorus members, ages 16-85, are a diverse group – teachers, medical professionals, attorneys, business leaders, students – all sharing a love of choral singing.

James Erb found the Richmond Symphony Chorus in 1971 to perform Beethoven’s Missa Solemnis under the baton of renowned conductor Robert Shaw. Erb, a professor at the University of Richmond and a scholar of Renaissance music, led the group for 36 years. Erin Freeman became director in 2007 and has led its singers in performances in Richmond, Wintergreen, Carnegie Hall, and Paris, France. (See Dr. Freeman’s profile in the program.)

Repertoire ranges from classical masterworks to pops favorites. Annual performance of Handel’s Messiah and Let It Snow Christmas Pops are highlights of the Symphony season. In 2018, the chorus was featured

10

in the Grammy-nominated recording of the premier performance of Children of Adam by American composer Mason Bates and Vaughan Williams’ Dona Nobis Pacem.

Spring of 2019 found the Chorus moving from the Carpenter Theater stage to backstage to the lobby in a rousing performance of Bizet’s Carmen with soloist Denyce Graves, while Fall included performances under the direction of celebrated conductors Marin Alsop and George Manahan.

So what is the Chorus doing during the coming months of social distancing and masks? We’re singing, of course! Our members are attending virtual rehearsals from their home offices, guest bedrooms, dining rooms, and family rooms! Look for some virtual performances from us later this season, with each singer’s voice combined with many others into a single video recording. We look forward to physically gathering and singing together as soon as we can safely do so.

(If you’re interested in auditioning for the Chorus, please visit www.rschorus.com/auditions.)

Myssyk’s recordings have received widespread critical acclaim. In 2012, he completed the recording of “Czech Serenades” with works by Suk and Dvořák.

The CD was in nomination for best recording of the year at the “ADISQ” awards, Quebec’s equivalent of the Grammys and at the Prix Opus from the Conseil québécois de la musique. Jean-Yves Duperron of the Classical Sentinel wrote: “Conductor Daniel Myssyk and the members of the Appassionata Chamber Orchestra ply their magic in this music, and shape each and every phrase, and infuse each and every note, with care and sincere expression. I’ve rarely heard these two works played with this much conviction.”

In recent years, he has made critically acclaimed appearances with Les Grands Ballets Canadiens, and the Lubbock Symphony Orchestra, among others. In 2015, Myssyk made his debut in Guanajuato (Mexico) where he has been returning every season since, and also conducted the Michoacan State Orchestra. In 2019, return engagements have brought him back to Canada to conduct the Orchestre symphonique de Trois-Rivières and the Orchestre de la Francophonie.

Myssyk conducts repertoire from the classical, romantic, modern and contemporary periods with great attention to stylistically appropriate detail.

He maintains a continuous engagement with opera in a variety of styles ranging from Mozart to Menotti. Sensitive to the music of our time, he has contributed to the creation of many contemporary North-American works, including the worldpremiere of Anthony Brandt’s opera, “The Birth of Something” with Da Camera in Houston.

He is currently the music director of the Richmond Symphony Youth Orchestra.

In the early 2000s, Myssyk was a conducting fellow at the Aspen Music Festival and School where he spent two summers under the tutelage of David Zinman. A student of Larry Rachleff, he received his Masters Degree in Conducting from the Shepherd School of Music at Rice University in 2006.

THE RENNOLDS SOCIETY Edmund A. Rennolds, Jr. (affectionately known as “Ned”) and his wife, Mary Anne, were founders of the Richmond Symphony with Brigadier General Vincent Meyer and Emma Gray Trigg. Ned and Mary Anne were synonymous with the Richmond Symphony. They worked tirelessly to help establish the orchestra – volunteering in many capacities, housing musicians, holding meetings and receptions in their home, supporting the orchestra financially, and giving valued guidance. They agreed to lend their name to the Rennolds Society hoping membership would grow and help sustain the future of the Richmond Symphony.

It’s easy to join the Rennolds Society – enjoy special events for members, use of the Dominion Energy Center for the Performing Arts Donor Lounge, and help secure the future of the orchestra! Members have an interest in the Symphony and have made provisions for the orchestra in their will or other estate planning vehicle.

The Richmond Symphony gratefully acknowledges the vision and foresight of the Rennolds Society members: Anonymous (9)
